History
''Gerald is a local hedge-wizard of Elwynn Forest, spending his life locked away in his mage-tower as a hermit to study both natural and magical elements for the good of his community. Though a hermit, he allows visits of villagers looking to cure diseases, seeking advice about the future, or seeking out his special-potions.''

''At the time of the start of the adventure, nobody had heard from Gerald in quite some time, unusually quiet even for a hermit. When the Adventurers ventured to his Tower, they found it surrounded by Ghouls, yet were surprised to discover the Ghouls were all friendly-minded and sane, not hostile.''

Gerald revealed to the adventurers his tower had been raided by bandits, ''who stole a Scroll of Necromancy and used it to raise the servants of his tower into the ghouls they had seen outside. Gerald had managed to restore their minds from the curse, yet not their bodies, requiring the Scroll of Necromancy back to reverse-engineer it. ''

As the Adventurers returned the Scroll, he has managed to find a cure, yet is still missing a crucial ingredient: A magical item dating from before the original Sundering.
